At first, you should definitely set your research to Thrill Rides only at $400, as that is the only thing you are lacking at the beginning. You probably won't need to research Roller Coasters at all, as there are 12 available from the start. After that, build some rides and shops and increase the entry fee or charge ride admissions. There are basically two options:

There are basically two options available for park expansion:
Select the method you are more comfortable with, and start building. If you choose to utilize only one quarter at the beginning, block the paths in the back of the park with 'No Entry' signs and keep the Miniature Railroad shut down until later to prevent guests getting lost.
* Starting in one of the quarters, then expanding to the next once it is filled.
* Starting with one ride in each quarter, expanding evenly throughout the game.
Each one is correct, but it would be advisable to stick to the chosen method.


Players who choose to utilize only one quarter at the beginning, should block the paths leading to the other quarters using 'No Entry' signs, and also keep the [[Miniature Railroad]] shut down until later to prevent [[guests]] getting lost. Players who picked the other option should try to stick close to the railroad's stops in order to prevent guests from wandering too much without rides, then fill up towards the center.
With almost 55,000m² (592,015ft²), the park is really big, and it should be no trouble at all to win this scenario. Expand slowly in the beginning and repay your loan. Save some space for Roller Coasters you might want to build in Year 4. Just remember that park value drops as your rides age, so it might be wise to replace older rides near the end. Building Roller Coasters is the best way of increasing your park value, so just add some if you don't meet the requirements in Year 4.


With almost 55,000m² (592,015ft²) of usable land, [[Magic Quarters]] should hardly offer any trouble at all. The first mission would be to expand slowly in the beginning and repay the ongoing loan. Another recommendation is to save hill space for Roller Coasters most players might want to build Year 4. In [[Roller Coaster Tycoon|the original game]], park value will drop significantly within four years, so it might be wise to replace older flat rides near the end. A good strategy is to build 2 coasters per year, and keep all the flat rides around the main paths, doing that will get the attention of the guests and get more cash. Building Roller Coasters is the best way of increasing the park value, so a new coaster will definitely be needed in Year 4 for players who don't meet the requirements by October year 3.
A good strategy for this one, is to build 2 coasters per year, and keep all the flat rides around the main paths, doing that will get the attention of the guests and get more cash.
